Sporty, also known as Sport, is a non-anthropomorphic dog.
Description[]
Sporty, also referred to as Sport, is a cheerful and helpful dog. In 1930, he helped Mickey Mouse (who might have been his owner at the time) build Mickey Mouse's Miniature Golf.
Behind the scenes[]
Sporty first appeared in Mr Slicker and the Egg Robbers. The strip in which he initially appeared was first released on September the 25th, 1930. Here, he was referred to "Sporty". However, in the strip released the very next day, his name was shortened to "Sport". Curiously, in their covering of Mr Slicker and the Egg Robbers, INDUCKS gives a third name for this dog, whom they refer to as "Horst".[1] The origin of this name is currently unknown to Scrooge McDuck Wiki editors.
